    i think you have to weigh up the options: ryanair will often be your cheapest option by far, but you run the risk of not getting what you paid for and a load of extra trouble on top!
    i have flown with them 50+ times over the last 8 years and the worst experience has been a 2 hour delay. i know i have been very lucky, but as a fairly frequent flier the savings i have made by choosing ryanair over another carrier far outweigh possible cancellations without compensation. i dont need friendly staff or free coffee, i just want to get places cheaply and on that front ryanair have (so far!) always delivered! guess you can call me a ryanair hugger :D

    Frustrating! They're still charging £10 each way for infants.
    And because we've got infants travelling we can't check in online.
    So "free" day-trip to Newquay would cost us £64.

    Is there any way the flight checker could have told me this?

    Just book one adult with airport check-in (to accompany the infant(s)) then do the rest of the adults together, in a separate booking, all with online check-in!

    Nice thinking, but it wouldn't work.
    We're 2 adults, 1 child and 2 infants. Can't have more infants than adults; children under 14 can't travel on their own. So we have to book all together.

    Current £5 is not the best they have had - has been 1p total for flights (plus payment fee)

    I still think that the article should mention that if you've got kids (which many of us do) then you can't get flights for anything like what the offers and flightchecker are saying...

    I think I have to travel Ryanair to get where I want to go from Glasgow- Marseilles. I wonder if experienced Ryanair watchers would advise me to get my tickets now at £50 a head plus charges, or wait for an offer? Or may I miss out altogether? Any advice gratefully received.

    Just booked Stansted-Poitiers and got 0p fares. With taxes, charges etc £12.00, which is utterly brilliant as far as I'm concerned. Will stay with my daughter who has just moved to Poitiers, so I am well pleased.
    Thanks MSE for highlighting the flights.
